May Day, May Day!

Why has it been taking me so long to update my blog?

We have been super busy lately.  We are transitioning over to a farmstead website and blog, but I wanted to let my readers know I have not fallen off the face of the earth.

It is chilly and rainy here, nowhere near what the first of May should be, in my mind.  But that's OK.  Our new trees and plants are getting plenty of water and the temperatures have remained above freezing, knock on wood.  Here are some pictures of the last several weeks on our Spotted Dog Farmstead.

Yes, this is a picture of bark!

I could post 50,000 more photos, but I think I'll stop here.  Just looking at that last photo of my daughter makes me want to go hug her!

Thanks for reading.

End of Summer and Back to School

Summer vacation is now over.  I am sad because I now I have to wake up at 5:00 a.m. every day and I will lose the unstructured time that I relish so much during the summer.  Yet, I get to teach new classes this coming school year, namely the upper level French classes at my school.  I am so pumped to do this, although it will be a challenge to have to plan for 5 different classes.  I can't wait to speak French all day long with kids.  I can't wait to see their eyes light up when I introduce them to Le Petit Prince, Stromae, Jean de Florette, Le Petit Nicolas, and le subjonctif (MDR=LOL!).

This year will rock!  I hope your school year does too, whether you are a student, teacher, parent, or a concerned citizen.

Here are some pics from this summer to help me remember the good times.

Thank you for reading!
